Publisher's Description
Ted Haggard presents a successful and tested model for a small group ministry here that can be implemented by a church of any size. By enabling members to embrace and capitalize on their own unique abilities, the diverse groups create an environment where people meet mentors that can disciple and guide them. This need-and interest based approach redefines the model for powerful church growth.

“Ted Haggard points us to creative partnership with the Holy Spirit. It is Him— God, the Spirit—who is seeking to mobilize the body of Christ for penetrating ministry into every corner of the marketplace and community. Here’s a tool to help us respond to the present thrust of the Church’s ongoing reformation touching the world through the everyday people in Jesus’ Body.”
“in the Body of Christ. Ted Haggard’s practical, refreshing, and vastly enjoyable ideas are important and relevant to the senior pastor, the small-group leader, and everyone in between.”
“I truly believe that the local, Spirit-filled church is the most important and influential gathering in any community. It is also the key to revival, evangelism, and discipleship in every community throughout the world. In Ted Haggard’s marvelous new book, Dog Training, Fly Fishing, and Sharing Christ in the 21st Century, he explains the simple, yet powerful strategy any church can adopt to achieve this wonderful purpose God has set before it. I am excited to see how He will use it to impact many ministries and lives! Dr. Bill Bright Founder and Chairman Campus Crusade for Christ Ted Haggard’s new book is a home run! Rarely do we get treated to a book on an old subject (small groups) that opens a window for a whole set of creative dynamics (free-market groups) based not on speculative wishful thinking but rather on measurable success in a real live local church. This book does all of that and more!”
“Applying free-market principles to ministry, Pastor Haggard has discovered a formula that has not only worked exceedingly well for his congregation, but that promises to help any church grow, prosper, and minister more effectively today. I highly recommend Dog Training, Fly Fishing, and Sharing Christ in the 21st Century to anyone interested in having a more dynamic church! Bill McCartney Founder and President, Promise Keepers”
